DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Stefan Brandstetter (DECTRIS Ltd.)\nIn the last deca
 de\, Hybrid Photon Counting (HPC) X-ray detectors [1] have transformed syn
 chrotron research. They provide noise-free detection and make new data acq
 uisition modes possible. The new HPC detector family EIGER2 enables even m
 ore ambitious X-ray science. These detectors combine all advantages of pre
 vious generations of HPC detectors\nwhile offering new features and improv
 ed performance: maximum count rates of $10^{7}$ photons per pixel\, two en
 ergy discriminating thresholds\, and zero readout dead time.\n\nThe system
 s have pixel sizes of 75 µm × 75 µm\, and feature frame rates up to 2 k
 Hz. EIGER2 detectors are available both with silicon and with CdTe sensors
  to provide high quantum efficiency at energies up to 100 keV. Two adjusta
 ble energy thresholds allow for reduction of high-energy background such a
 s from cosmic radiation or higher harmonics. These benefits advance establ
 ished methods like crystallography and small angle X-ray scattering and em
 power new fields of research\, such as X-ray photon correlation spectrosco
 py and coherent studies.\n\nWe will present results from detector characte
 rization and application experiments and show how EIGER2 detector systems 
 enable further advances in X-ray micro- and nanoanalysis.\n\n**References*
